"Yes."

The scouts hurried away again.

However, Hulukou is forty miles away from Jiamengguan, and it takes a day to come and go, will Lu Bu still sit at the bottom of the valley?

The lieutenants were very dissatisfied.

One of the adjutant generals said, "General, you are too careful. The 14th Brigade defeated General Pound's 10,000 iron cavalry. But they've run out of artillery, and now it's easier for us to go out of the valley and fight. ”

"What if I don't run out? This has to be guarded against! ”

Zhang Ren said very seriously: "Without my order, no one is allowed to fight." This is a military order, and those who violate it will be punished! ”

"No..."

The two words of military order are like a big mountain pressing on them, so that they dare not hesitate at all.

The surrounding soldiers raised their bows and arrows, ready to attack.

Zhang Ren sat on a piece of bluestone and stared at Lu Bu at the bottom of the mountain.

Time flies...

Half an hour later.

Lu Bu and the others were also a little impatient. But he didn't expect that a sudden change would break the deadlock.

"Newspaper... Report...! ”

A messenger from the 14th Brigade ran into the valley and said to Lu Bu: "My lord, there are tens of thousands of enemy troops attacking our department, and Brigade Commander Zhou is resisting. Please go back to camp quickly. ”

"Tens of thousands of enemy troops?"

Lu Bu was extremely shocked.

The enemy is all in the mouth of the gourd, and he doesn't see out, where are the tens of thousands of enemy troops?

"Yes, my lord, go back to camp. Brigade Commander Zhou said that the mouth of the gourd is very dangerous, and once the lord is surrounded, the 14th Brigade will not have time to rescue. The herald said eagerly.

"Let's go. Get back to camp. ”

Lu Bu did not hesitate to put away the map and ran out of the valley.

When Zhang Ren saw it, he immediately said, "Send someone to follow him." ”

"No."

Lu Bu came to the outside of the gourd. Seeing that there were numerous enemy troops, they surrounded the camp. The 14th Brigade set up a defensive line on the spot to fight the enemy, but because the grenades were not carried much, it was at a disadvantage.

"Damn it!"

Lu Bu yelled at the soldiers behind him: "Come with me, kill in from the flank, and join the 14th Brigade." ”

"Kill...!"

The soldiers followed Lu Bu and rushed to the enemy forces on the outskirts of the camp.

As far as the eye can see, there are really a lot of enemies, and most of them are crossbowmen and sword and shield soldiers, which can be said to be the nemesis of the new army. Although the 14th Brigade was good at fighting and had just defeated Pang De, its combat effectiveness was obviously inferior to that of the Shu army when the number of grenades was small.

Puff puff...

Lu Bu rushed into the formation and fought hard.

The soldiers behind him also quickly released their three-bow crossbows.

However, there are too many enemy troops, and they have never been able to save the situation. The 14 Brigade had already taken out all the grenades and killed thousands of enemy soldiers attacking the fortification. When the grenade runs out, you can only use a three-bow crossbow.

The whole battlefield is like a petal.

The 14 Brigade was trapped in the center of the petals and could not get out.

Lu Bu's battalion, after coming into contact with the enemy army, also paid a heavy price.

"Report..."

The scouts sent by Zhang Ren came back to report: "General, our soldiers from Nanzhai have arrived at the mouth of the valley and are fighting with Lu Bu's army, and they have the upper hand. ”

"Looks like I'm too suspicious..."

Zhang Ren climbed a bluestone and said to the soldiers and generals around him: "Brothers, the soldiers of my Nanzhai are fighting with Lu Bu. Lu Bu only has two or three thousand people, and this is our best chance to build a great achievement. Now listen to my orders, everyone go out of the valley and face Lu Bu! ”

"The Admiral is wise."

"Listen to the general, go and prepare!"

The generals, who had long been impatient, couldn't wait to lead the soldiers into battle.

Zhang Ren also saw the hope of victory and hurried down the mountain.

The flanks of the gourd mouth.

Xu Shu, Han Xin and Li Jing, leading the forces of two divisions, hid in the woods.

He was accompanied by Li Yuanba and Li Cunxiao.

They had been waiting for half a day, but they had not found a suitable fighter.

Suddenly, hearing that the 14th Brigade was under siege, Li Jing wanted to go to the rescue.

Xu Shu didn't allow it, and said, "Don't worry, wait..." ”

"Sir, the 14th Brigade does not carry many grenades, I'm afraid it can't defeat the defeated army in Nanzhai. In case the lord is in danger, then.... Li Jing was worried.

"Yes, sir. If we don't go, the 14 Brigade will be finished. Han Xin also said.

"I'm more anxious than you!"

Xu Shu's palms were full of sweat, but his face was surprisingly calm: "Think about it... The defeated army of Nanzhai attacked the 14th Brigade, and the lord would definitely go to the rescue. What will the enemy army in the mouth of the gourd do? Will they also go out of the valley and participate in the siege of the lord? If so, if we go to war again, we can take out all the enemies once and for all. And if you go out now, it will be possible to startle the snake, so that the enemy troops in the mouth of the gourd will not come out. This is contrary to the purpose of our trip and does not achieve the best results. ”

"yes..."

Han Xin calmed down.

Li Jing said: "But if the lord is in danger, I will not forgive you for death." ”

"Sir, let's go." Li Cunxiao and Li Yuanba said.

"No, wait."

Xu Shu still didn't agree.

Time passed in the torment of the people.

Until the enemy army in the mouth of the gourd, all out of the valley.

Xu Shu took the map, spread it on the ground, and ordered: "Han Xin's 1st Brigade will go to seal the valley mouth, and the enemy must not be allowed to retreat to danger." The 2nd Brigade and Yuanba and Cunxiao went around to the southwest to rescue the lord. The 3rd Brigade and the 4th Brigade of General Li Jing's 2nd Division made a feint attack on the east to contain most of the enemy's forces. The rest of the troops, with me, killed from the north and went straight to the aid of the 14th Brigade. ”

"No."

The order is over.

Ministries moved quickly.

Li Cunxiao and Li Yuanba were even more impatient to go to the battlefield, and the weapons in their hands were already rattling.

Gourd mouth.

Zhang Ren led the army out and killed Lu Bu's rear.

Lü Bu was besieged from all sides, and the situation was very critical. The battalion he brought, although desperately fought to the death, could not resist the many enemy troops like locusts, and died honorably in the situation of being outnumbered by the enemy.

Lu Bu fought alone, even more unstoppable.

The Red Rabbit Horse carried him to dodge the attack.

Fang Tian's halberd was swung to the extreme.

When Zhang Ren arrived, he ordered the surrounding soldiers to attack Lu Bu. The soldiers wanted to make a meritorious start, and they worked very hard. But although there are many people, it is difficult to hurt Lu Bu in the slightest.

Under the stab of Fang Tian's painting halberd, it was they who paid an extremely heavy price.

At the critical moment of besieging Lu Bu, Zhang Ren inadvertently discovered it. The battlefield was full of Lu Bu's new army. There are Han Xin's 1st Division, Li Jing's 2nd Division, plus the 14th Brigade in front of him, a total of seven brigades!

Seven brigades!

According to the calculation of the establishment of Lu Bu's new army, there are at least 20,000 people!

"Not good!"

Zhang Ren was taken aback, and hurriedly shouted: "We have been tricked, quickly return to the gourd valley..." ”

"General, Taniguchi is occupied by the enemy..." Suddenly, the defenders came to report.

Hiss...

This news was like a thunderbolt from the sky, and Zhang Ren's head buzzed.

"So far, the only way to do this is to fight with the enemy..."

The generals under Zhang Ren all said.

Want to fight hard with 20,000 new troops?

It's chilling to think about the combat effectiveness of the new army.

Zhang Ren also had no confidence, and scolded: "These fools, let them return to the gourd mouth and provoke Lu Bu to do something." Take me with you if you want to die. When you return to Jiameng Pass, you must be severely punished by the military division. ”
